What’s the difference between using JavaScript and HTML code on websites that allow using both types?

JavaScript tracker is the tracking method of choice because it enables all of the advanced tracking methods on your MobileTracker account. If your website editor allows you to install a JavaScript tracker, then you should use this method to gain the most information about your visitors. An HTML tracking code should only be used for social networks or web editors that do not allow usage of JavaScript code.

To make the process of knowing if your social network or blog supports JavaScript, simply select the name of your web page provider from the tracker code type selection menu while generating your visitor tracking code. The system will automatically provide you with the correct code and instructions if documentation for your specific website is available.

Here are some of the JavaScript tracker features that HTML tracker does not provide:

Referrer tracking – see the website URLs where your visitors find links to your site

Search engine keyword tracking – see the visitor search engine activity, such as the keywords visitors use to find your website, search engine names, URLs, demographics and whether your website ranks high and appears on the first page of the search engine results

Browsing path – see how your visitors navigate from one page to another and how much time they spend going from one URL to another within your website

Cumulative external referrer statistics – see websites that refer to you most often and how many visitors are referred within a given period of time

Cumulative keywords statistics – see the keywords your visitors use that most often result in visits to your website

Cumulative search engine statistics – see how search engines rank your website and what country specific search engines bring you the most traffic

Cumulative internal referrer statistics – see which pages of your website refer the most to other specific pages on your website

Browser specific features statistics – know the resolution of computer screens your visitors use and see the browsers’ support of support JavaScript and flash.

Page Tracker option to control access to specific pages on your website by creating IP and GEO access rules

Once you have installed a proper tracker code on your website, your MobileTracker account will automatically switch to the appropriate tracking mode once the first visitor is detected by the system.

If you have upgraded your tracker code from HTML version to JavaScript version, your account will automatically switch to the advanced tracking mode once a first visitor is detected with the JavaScript version of the tracker.

+ : A leading plus sign indicates that this word must be present in every object returned.

- : A leading minus sign indicates that this word must not be present in any row returned.

By default (when neither plus nor minus is specified) the word is optional, but the object that contain it will be rated higher.

< > : These two operators are used to change a word's contribution to the relevance value that is assigned to a row.

( ) : Parentheses are used to group words into subexpressions.

~ : A leading tilde acts as a negation operator, causing the word's contribution to the object relevance to be negative. It's useful for marking noise words. An object that contains such a word will be rated lower than others, but will not be excluded altogether, as it would be with the - operator.

* : An asterisk is the truncation operator. Unlike the other operators, it should be appended to the word, not prepended.

" : The phrase, that is enclosed in double quotes ", matches only objects that contain this phrase literally, as it was typed.
